Sábado 9 de abril
Mantén tu juicio en todas las cosas, sufre el mal, haz la obra de evangelizador, efectúa tu ministerio plenamente (2 Tim. 4:5).
Hacer “la obra de evangelizador” significa ser un ministro eficiente y ayudar a la gente a obtener la salvación. Para ello necesitas cultivar el “arte de enseñar” (2 Tim. 4:2). Tal como Timoteo aprendió de Pablo, tú aprenderás mucho si sales a predicar con publicadores más experimentados (1 Cor. 4:17). Pablo les dijo a los tesalonicenses que los quería tanto que, además de enseñarles la verdad, les había entregado su alma, es decir, había usado su vida para ayudarlos (1 Tes. 2:8). Timoteo imitó bien a Pablo: se preocupó por los demás y “sirvió como esclavo [...] en el adelanto de las buenas nuevas” (Fili. 2:19-23). ¿Y tú? ¿Sigues el ejemplo de Pablo y Timoteo? ¿Estás dispuesto a hacer sacrificios para cumplir con tu ministerio?
Saturday, April 9
Keep your senses in all things, suffer evil, do the work of an evangelizer, fully accomplish your ministry.—2 Tim. 4:5.
‘Doing the work of an evangelizer’ means making your ministry more effective and helping others to gain salvation. This requires developing the “art of teaching.” (2 Tim. 4:2) By arranging to share in the ministry with those who are experienced in this work, you will be able to learn from their teaching methods, as Timothy learned from working with Paul. (1 Cor. 4:17) Referring to those he had helped, Paul said that he not only shared the good news with them but also gave of his ‘own soul,’ or used his very life in helping them, because they became beloved to him. (1 Thess. 2:8) To follow Paul’s example in the ministry, you must have the same disposition as Timothy, who genuinely cared about others and ‘slaved in furtherance of the good news.’ (Phil. 2:19-23) Do you show this self-sacrificing spirit in your ministry?
Examining the Bible Scriptures Daily, Such instructions gave Jesus ‘the tongue of the taught ones’ so that he would ‘know how to answer the tired one with a word.’ (Isa. 30:20; 50:4; Matt. 11:28-30) Being awakened to timely counsel from the Word of God each morning will not only help you to cope with your own problems but also equip you with ‘the tongue of the taught ones’ to help others.”
